Colourful Cooking, Mostly Veg

  • Recipes
    • Rice-friendlySomething saucy or easy to pick with chopsticks. Goes really well with rice.
    • Curry & StewMake big batches and store for later use. Perfect for weekdays or work from home.
    • Soup & NoodlesNo matter how the weather is, soup and noodles are always comfort food to me. These recipes mostly don’t require meat. Let the vegetables shine and nourish your body.
    • Veg PastaDefinitely not authentic, but I like to cook pasta with loads of vegetables that is nutritious and filling.
    • Easy SideThese vegetable side dishes outshine the mains and keep me digging in. Surprisingly, they are very easy to make!
    • Salad & DressingSalad is refreshing. It can be served warm and be a part of Asian dinner too! Here you’ll also find different simple dressing that no more store-bought is required.
